Note: This feature is designed for 'mass-storage class compliant' USB flash memory drives and MP3 players that
appear as a single 'Removable Disk' when connected to a computer. USB hard disk drives can be connected, but
the drive must have a separate power supply and be formatted as a single FAT32 partition. USB devices that do
not conform to this standard cannot be used. Arcam cannot guarantee operation with hard disk drives.
Choosing music files to play
Music files are stored on a USB flash drive inside
folders, depending on how the USB flash drive has
been organised. When choosing a music file to
play, the top line of the front panel display shows
the name of the current folder. The bottom line is
used to display files or folders contained within
the current folder.
Use the remote control cursor keys B/C to
